When you factor in salary, benefits, payroll taxes, training, turnover, sick days, and management overhead, a full-time receptionist costs most businesses $35,000–$55,000 per year. And that only covers business hours Monday through Friday — every evening, weekend, and holiday call still goes to voicemail.
The hidden costs are even more significant. The average receptionist turnover rate is 40-60% annually, and each replacement costs $3,000-$5,000 in recruiting, hiring, and training. When your receptionist is on a call, at lunch, or calls in sick, incoming calls go unanswered — and each missed call represents potential revenue walking out the door.
An AI receptionist like Wellgrow doesn't replace your team — it complements them. It handles the repetitive, high-volume calls (appointment booking, FAQs, confirmations) while your human staff focus on complex issues, in-person service, and relationship building. The AI works 24/7, handles unlimited simultaneous calls, never needs training twice, and costs a fraction of a single hire.
Let AI handle the phones while your team does what they do best.
